I am Very afraid of heights , but there was a couple of guys that made me very comfortable I ever thought I would be able to do it either , I went one way and that was enough , but I did it and I was proud of my self and my son was Very surprised thatIattempted and did it at least one way Lol. Wow. That is great. You have big balls, congrats. I am so afraid of heights I would never do that.

Wow I think I can finally again post my pics that I have been trying to post from my zip lining while visiting my son in St. George Utah.

I would be kind of Jealous of the ones that look pretty as Women , because some of them really know how to put there make up on and then I would be lmao because I wouldn't be able to hold it in what a site it must be as we have the same out here sometimes in Long Beach Cali, I tell you is a site , I bet you had fun I know a couple of Men , Women , boys and girls that would t right in and join so that tells you something about me that I really don't judge, to each their own, I even have family members that would probably fit in.

Don't worry about that , you were just trying to help , do what you are doing & keep up with us , because you know what you have accomplished , so let it roll of your back .

Hey! You be proud of yourself for doing it and finishing.

Before I started getting fills I could do ok with any kind of bread , then when I started getting fills I couldn't my band said No , however if it is whole wheat and toasted almost burnt I can eat it if I take REALLY SMALL BITES , I also don't eat it much any more because it is carbs and will make me gain over night I found out I also don't do most things that are white because the starch and carbs , I Love tortillas corn or flour and my band says NO to them soI had to give them up , there are certain foods I gave up but I LOVE the being able to move , being healthy , having energy and wearing smaller sizes so I don't mind giving some foods up .

That is GRRRRREAT , it feels so good doesn't it to grab 2 pairs and the smaller ones fit don't you just love the feeling that YOU are doing something right with the help of the tool(band) and that made the decision to be healthy.

I use the bariatric pal site on my Lap top computer ,tablet and Android ( NOT A SMART PHONE) and I use bariatric pro on my Android also they both seem to be pretty good , but sometimes , I forgot when it does it and can't think right now but it will Bariatric pro does crash some times , and as YOU(Alex) know I am sooooo not tech inclined Lol but they both seem to be pretty good , but I prefer the Bariatric pal as I am still wandering trying to post pics or attachments for pics I want to upload , it just takes me a while to figure out , I also notice people can put links to the sites of there pics and someday I will and hope I can do that, when I figure it I can copy , paste and post from either form of computers LOL, Thankyou ALex and TEAM.

Hey Alex my Mother is on board to get wls, However her pcp won't advise it because she has Afib, and a pacemaker and her Cardio Surgeon says he doesn't think her heart can take it , even though she is morbidly obese , have you ever heard of wls Surgeons operating on some one with a pacemaker or Afib , she really wants the surgery , but she also says she doesn't want to pay that much , but I told her so you would rather be at the Doctors and Hospital paying that much or more every year then to be healthy and not pay that much , so now she is considering it , just thought this applied to this topic.

You know us Ladies we're going to look sense we know have now you on the site , heck remember when, Junkie5.0 posted about does size matters , we all had to look oh by the way I was just in St. George Utah the week June 9-14t then I got back to California the 14th , St. George is BEAUTIFUL , I am thinking about moving out there .

Well apparently someone liked what they saw a beautiful Woman, now go get em and don't be nervous just be yourself, so he or they can get the whole package.

YOU are doing it , you Look marvalous Darling.

Happy anniversary to your Wife and You , up, up and away into the clouds , look yo are floating in the air because of how much lighter you people are Lol, it looks like fun , I might try that some day maybe , heck I never thought I would zip line but I did .

Oh!,but so true I was wearing a size 13 in the just my size a year ago , now I wear a size 8 &9 in normal under wear, so yes it does work and I love and am also working the band.

Another Star , We are not Actresses, or Hollywood Stars ,but we are stars that are moving.:-).

Love the pics and everybody can see the transformation , they need to put these pics of you at your surgeons office so that if anyone is thinking about having wls they can meet or ask you questions , you have came a long way and by reading the comments it looks like you are paying it forward for others already and have done so in the past and it gives me hope from a lot of you people , I for one especially love where it says 2.5 years , as you know I am also 2012 bandster and I was hoping to be at goal in my first yr, now I am just hoping to be at goal by my 2nd yr if not , well I will still get there, and what we couldn't do before and what we can do now even the little things that we can do now is what makes us happy and being healthy is one of the many things , Thank You for telling your story , so us and others can see it does work if you work with it. :)

Wow while I was visiting my so in Utah I was staying at a Hotel that had a swimming pool so after our visits I would go to the pool and I did 5 laps across and 15 in. of jogging , then 20 jumping jacks in the water, so refreshing, and 2 days n a row we went hiking and to top off the end of our visit on our last day together we hiked up to go zip lining and hiked backed down to the car and then I had to take him back then I ran through the airport in Salt Lake City Utah to catch my flight that they held for me because I was almost late for the flight , but I made it and got home to Calif. , now it's back to work , and I will be dancing to the oldies by Richard Simmons cd, and walking to get my exercise .

So I had a busy week and got a lot of exercise also I am drained and have one day to just relax and re cooperate then it is back to being stressed and work , I had a great time visiting my son and we did quite a few things , I will try to post some pics later and I can cross off zip lining from my bucket list , yes at the age of 50 I went zip lining , and this is a Women who is afraid of heights, but I am proud of my self and did it , the energy I have now since being banded even my son was surprised that I hiked and zipped lined and didn't get out of breath or have to stop and rest .

[attachment=45482:IMG_20140612_185235.Tomorrow will be my last day in Utah with my youngest then back to California , I miss him so much love him and the funny things he says and does , but we had a good time together, hopefully I can post some of my pics from the trip and us.

Where is the pic of you playing dress up lol , we want to see the tiny skirt be proud and show off your stuff , as you see I am nt small but I am smaller than I was almost 2 yrs. ago and I will never be thin or skinny but I will and am more healthy than I was except for when I was carrying all my weight it did a number on my breathing and back for sure of course it doesn't help I smoke but like I said carrying all that weight was not good and Really didn't even realize it but I am now so be proud of your self and show off.

You do the same as you did and just save the changes and you will notice changes in a couple of months.
